Hill moved to Nashville, Tennessee in 2002 to attend Belmont University's commercial music program. Upon graduating, he started producing and engineering for publishing companies in town. He eventually began working with the duo Brothers Osborne, and co-produced their self-titled EP and two songs from their debut album Pawn Shop. He subsequently met Maren Morris and co-produced her self-titled EP in the fall of 2015.

In response to the 2017 Las Vegas shooting, Morris released "Dear Hate", a song she had written and recorded with Vince Gill, which was produced and engineered by Hill.
